Subject-Verb Agreement

• Subject-verb agreement refers to the rules which guide us in the correct placement of the verbs based on the number of the subject.

• 'Neither nor' joining two singular subjects takes a singular verb. However, if the subject closer to the verb is plural, it takes a plural verb.

• 'Bookstores' is plural. Thus, the sentence takes the plural verb 'have.'
